LOS ANGELES (AP) – A week or so after being fired by UCLA in 2003, Steve Lavin got together with successor Ben Howland over margaritas.
Lavin surely had a lot to say.
Now he’s returning to UCLA for the first time as an opposing coach, leading St. John’s (13-8) against the Bruins (15-7) on Saturday in a nationally televised matchup of teams from the country’s two biggest media markets. Tip-off is at 10 a.m. PST.
Lavin and Howland have known each other since Lavin’s days as the No. 3 assistant under Jim Harrick at UCLA.
